Description

The Remove-DnsServerQueryResolutionPolicy cmdlet removes a policy for query resolution from a Domain Name System (DNS) server. If you remove a policy, the DNS server automatically adjusts the processing order of the remaining policies.

Examples

Example 1: Remove a server level policy

PS C:\> Remove-DnsServerQueryResolutionPolicy -Name "DropPolicy" -PassThru

Confirm
Removing the server level policy DropPolicy from the DNS server SERVER01-T10. Do you want to continue?
[Y] Yes  [N] No  [S] Suspend  [?] Help (default is "Y"): Y

Name                                 ProcessingOrder                      IsEnabled                            Action
----                                 ---------------                      ---------                            ------
DropPolicy                           1                                    True                                 Ignore

This command removes a server level policy named DropPolicy.

Example 2: Remove a zone level policy

PS C:\> Remove-DnsServerQueryResolutionPolicy -Name "LBPolicy" -ZoneName "contoso.com"

Confirm
Removing the zone level policy LBPolicy from zone contoso.com on the DNS server SERVER01-T10. Do you want to continue?
[Y] Yes  [N] No  [S] Suspend  [?] Help (default is "Y"): Y

This command removes the zone level policy named LBPolicy from the zone named contoso.com.

Example 3: Remove all zone level policies from a zone

PS C:\> Get-DnsServerQueryResolutionPolicy -ZoneName "contoso.com" | Remove-DnsServerQueryResolutionPolicy -ZoneName "contoso.com" -Force -PassThru

Name                                 ProcessingOrder                      IsEnabled                            Action
----                                 ---------------                      ---------                            ------
NorthAmericaPolicy                   1                                    True                                 Allow
EuropePolicy                         1                                    True                                 Allow

This command gets all zone level policies on a zone named contoso.com by using the Get-DnsServerQueryResolutionPolicy cmdlet. The command passes the policies to the current cmdlet by using the pipeline operator. The current cmdlet deletes each of the policies from this zone. This command specifies the Force parameter. It removes policies without prompting you to confirm.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.

For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.

The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
